Possible Extension of State Super Looked Into
A working party has been formed to consider options for extending the State Sector Retirement Savings Scheme (SSRSS) to entities in the wider State sector. Current SSRSS employers are the 35 ministries and departments in the Public Service; five non-Public Service departments; State or State-integrated area, primary, intermediate, secondary or special schools; free kindergarten associations (registered teachers only); and a few entities in the wider State sector (on the basis of funding the employer subsidy from their existing budget).
Angela Foulkes has been appointed as chair of the working party. Other members nominated for the working party are: Helen Kelly (NZ Council of Trade Unions), Eileen Brown (CTU), Glenn Barclay (PSA), Glenda Alexander (NZ Nurses Organisation), Sharn Riggs (Association of Staff in Tertiary Education), Andrew Norton (Auckland District Health Board), Nick Economu (NZ Post), Ellen Dunster (AgResearch Ltd), Murray Costello (Culture and Heritage Ministry), Hauraki Greenland (Treasury), Helen Moody (State Services Commission), and a representative, yet to be named, from the NZ Vice Chancellors' Committee.
